About our glazing silicone in Mount Pleasant

Cracked, stained or lifting silicone on glass looks poor and can leak. We remove it without scratching the glass or frame before the new bead goes in. If you’re dealing with mouldy sealant around glass panels and leaks from the base of a shower screen, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Mount Pleasant, older homes often have timber frames set in stone or brickwork. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, so the sealant has to be chosen to suit the building.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid scraping close to the bead
  • Wipe the screen down after showering
  • Get a new leak looked at quickly
  • Use a gentle glass cleaner and a soft cloth

Check the joints once a year. Catching a split early keeps the repair small, before water gets in.

A small conservatory leak soon spreads. Water runs along frames and down walls so it’s best dealt with straight away.

Different surfaces, different methods

Shower screens

A screen’s wall joint and tray joint are where leaks start. Both are resealed with anti-fungal silicone.

Rooflights

Rooflight leaks can come from the sealant or the roof. We find the cause first.

Mount Pleasant questions

Is Mount Pleasant within the area you cover?

Yes, Mount Pleasant is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

I let a flat near Stansted Mountfitchet station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

How long should I leave it?

Most sealants are touch-dry well before they’re fully cured. We will give you the cure time for the product we used before we leave.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.

Can I choose the sealant colour?

In most cases you can choose. We will tell you which colours the right product comes in and agree one before we start.

Can you reseal a frameless shower screen?

Yes. We cut out the old silicone and reseal the glass-to-wall and glass-to-tray joints.

What glazing silicone looks like in Mount Pleasant

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.

Schools such as Manuden Primary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have plenty of frames, and the mastic around each one ages. Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and the windows may be timber, sash or later replacements, and each needs the right sealant against the wall.

Common problems we fix in Mount Pleasant

UV light ages silicone and roof joints get the most sun. It goes brittle, cracks and stops sticking on the glass.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • A quick top-up bead that didn’t last
  • Drips on the inside of a conservatory window
  • Shower screens leaking along the wall or tray
  • Glazing silicone that has cracked or come away

If you let a flat or house near Stansted Mountfitchet station, glazing joints are worth checking at the end of a tenancy, before a small leak grows.

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Are they insured?

When something else is needed

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Rotten or badly damaged frames
  • A roof that has moved or dropped
  • Failed flashing around a conservatory

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

How it works

Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to most of a day, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Mount Pleasant, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We trace the leak and confirm it’s a sealant joint.
  2. The failed silicone is cut out without marking the glass or frame.
  3. We clean the glass and frame so the new silicone bonds.
  4. A neutral-cure glazing silicone is applied and tooled.
  5. We check the finished joints and test with water where it’s safe.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
